A TERRIFIC MYSTERY / COURTROOM NOVEL

This will all sound trite, but it's true. Definitely keeps your interest, a page turner, cleverly plotted, surprises at every turn....

But...the ENDING... The ending is amazing. If you like the kind of ending where you're not only surprised, but the surprise makes logical sense without introducing unknown facts and you are totally satisfied... evil is undone with most gratifying results... then you'll like this book.

Perhaps one of the best mystery / courtroom books I've read and it definitely has one of the best endings I've ever read.

Another fine courtroom drama from Connelly. Mickey Haller defends a woman accused of murdering the bank executive in charge of foreclosing on her home. I liked that Connelly didn't add sub-plots or side stories, he stuck to the main plot line and that speaks to the strength of this novel. "The Lincoln Lawyer" is the Haller novel most people are familiar with and I would rate this one slightly better.

Great book! I don't read Grisham because they are bogged down with lots of descriptions, etc. BUT this one is so well written that page after page it reveals something new either about the client, the case, or Mickey's personal life--very hard to put down.

Enjoyed as with others in this series but did get bogged down at different points with elaborate details. Glad I bought it.
